...Ghanaians and served as a model for all of Africa. Isn't it ironic that the 50th anniversary of Ghana's independence and the 200th anniversary of the abolition of the British slave trade fall in the same year? Time could have done Ghana's tourism industry a great favor by including photographs of some of the castles, beautiful sandy beaches and Lake Volta.

If you favor Washington oversight of media, gory TV is your new opportunity area...

Stephen Colbert mocks Republican representatives by forcing them to reveal that they don’t know the Ten Commandments, in addition to mocking Democratic representatives by forcing them to argue in favor of throwing kittens into woodchippers. We watch and enjoy these shows because the humor is organic. The leaders and ideas that are mocked are the ones that deserve it. If a certain party or belief is mocked more often, then the cause should be because that interest has more power or more...
